His Marriage to Remember
The Good, The Bad and The Texan
June 2012
...love seeing a tough, rugged cowboy brought to his knees and Kathie is one of the best writers to do this.
Awesome read. Kathie DeNosky is embarking on a new series called The Good, The Bad and The Texan about 6 troubled teen boys who were sent to a ranch and became successful, honorable and upstanding members of society. Can't wait to hear all about Nate, T.J, Ryder, Jaron and Lane (the other 5 brothers with only Nate being biological). I love seeing a tough, rugged cowboy brought to his knees and Kathie is one of the best writers to do this. She could’ve taken this story in another direction where Bria took advantage of the situation but instead Bria was leery. This time it would be almost impossible to walk away from Sam again.

Expecting the Rancher's Heir
Dynasties: The Jarrods
September 2010
I love how this series is playing out. It’s great seeing Erica (from the first book) slowly fitting in to this family. The authors are doing a fabulous job keeping the story and characters consistent. I love seeing characters that are coming up and just know they are going to be fun characters. I did think Melissa was too concerned about other people’s opinions at the beginning. Luckily she realized this.

A Rare Sensation
February 2005
...a tale of buried secrets, awakening passion, and love between a man and woman that’s breathtaking.
Dynasties: The Ashtons
Abigail Ashton has spent most of her life trying to convince herself and everyone else that she's not like her tramp of a mother. Russ Gannon hasn't had an easy life either. Orphaned at 15, he's made his way in the world, earning his keep with the only two skills he has: riding bulls and growing grapes. Russ' promises force Abby out of her protective shell to discover the love she was destined for in his arms. Kathie DeNosky continues the Ashton's Dynasty with A Rare Sensation (4). The story is filled with loads of internal conflict from both characters; that, and a sensuously driven plot keep the pages turning.

"A Smoky Mountain Christmas"
Getaway
with Stella Bagwell and Annette Broderick
December 2004
...an enchanting anthology
From three very talented authors comes an enchanting anthology that readers are going to absolutely fall in love with. In Getaway, readers meet three women who are all traveling to different locations to celebrate the holiday season. The women introduce themselves to each other and soon become fast friends. As their respective flights are called, each woman promises to meet back at the airport and tell how their Christmas went.
Kathie DeNosky's Smoky Mountain Christmas is a charming story about a woman who learns that Christmas is meant to be spent with those you love -- like family and friends -- from a man who loves the holiday. Lucas and Megan are bewitching characters and their story is superb. I love to read stories where two people who are total opposites -- a mountain man and a city girl -- find a common ground...love.
For a delightful intermission during the hustle and bustle of the holidays, pick up your copy of Getaway today. It's truly one for the keeper's shelf and it brings home the true meaning of Christmas.

Baby at His Convenience
July 2004
...a witty and enteratining story of love
Katie wonders if her sudden attraction to the silent stranger at her diner has anything to do with her doctor's ominous warning that if she wants children, she'd better start having them soon. Jeremiah Gunn is handsome, but he's not very friendly. Jeremiah had hoped coming to Piney Knobb would help him accept his new and unwelcome civilian status. The last thing he wants is romance, but he's attracted to Katie. Kathie DeNosky weaves her magic yet again, and the results are spellbinding. Baby at His Convenience (4.5) is a witty and entertaining story of love between characters who do not fit the standard cookie-cutter mold.

Remembering One Wild Night
January 2004
...one book you will remember.
The third book in the Texas Cattleman's Club: The Stolen Baby series.
Kathie DeNosky has written another great story that keeps you entertained. It had me wondering who would want to hurt Natalie and take her precious baby, Autumn, from her. I could feel the pain that Travis felt about not knowing about his baby when she was born. You could also feel the fear that Natalie felt when she was scared that someone was going to get Autumn. But as much as I loved the main characters, I also loved Mose. Mose is Travis’s housekeeper and he is such a riot. Ms. DeNosky always has a way of making her secondary characters just as loveable as the main ones. So if you love, babies, cowboys and romance you need to get to a copy of Remembering One Wild Night, because it will be one book you will remember.

A Lawman in Her Stocking
November 2003
Rating: Spicy
Brenna and Dylan are compassionate characters, and they are more than capable of surviving the rocky road to happily-ever-after together. Readers can always count on wonderful secondary characters in Ms. DeNosky's books, and this is no exception. A romance brewing between Dylan's uncle and Brenna's grandmother is a sweet touch, and provides for plenty of chuckles.
Destined to be a holiday favorite, A Lawman in Her Stocking is classic Kathie DeNosky — fresh, fun, sexy and engaging!

Cowboy Boss
August 2002
Terrific character driven romance -- Very highly recommended
Author Kathie DeNosky pens a sparking romance in COWBOY BOSS. Faith's queasiness regarding creeping critters lends just the light note of levity to keep COWBOY BOSS a lively read. Faith's disillusion with marriage and her challenge to overcome the scars from the past neatly match Cooper's challenges. Once again DeNosky demonstrates a dazzling gift for creating a character driven tale with emotional depth balanced by the heart. Very highly recommended.

Cassie's Cowboy Daddy
May 2002
Rating: Spicy
Ms. DeNosky keeps getting better and better! After reading, and loving, her previous books, I had very high hopes for CASSIE'S COWBOY DADDY. To my advantageous surprise, DeNosky managed to not only meet my expectations -- she surpassed them! She offers a romance that is both family-oriented and frankly sensual -- a fantastic combination that will delight any reader. DeNosky's ability to transport her readers into the story, along with the humor and passion prevalent in her writing, mark her as a true rising star in the romance genre.
This is most definitely not your average cowboy and baby story; DeNosky injects freshness and originality into CASSIE'S COWBOY DADDY, making it a book to treasure.

Robin Peek, Under The Covers Book Reviews
Each page resulted in a chuckle. Everyone Chance encountered he corrected Kristen that she was Kristen Warren and that she might be pregnant. The banter between him and Kristen was great as was the banter between him and Kristen’s father. Kristen was a great match for Chance. Even though in a lot of ways he was domineering, unlike her father he offered his opinion and let Kristen be the one to decide. This was Ms. DeNosky’s debut book and I for one am glad Harlequin/Silhouette recognized her talent.
